My 0028 upper fireback is warped and I was thinking how the 2190 design seems a bit easier to maintain the catalyst since it's accessible from the front and was wondering if I could convert my 0028 fireback to be a 2190 or if the stove body is completely different. Anybody know?
 
Can't be done and there is really no advantage. All Encores are about the same in that way; annoying.
